A fun game of 1,2,3, countdown Stableford golf preceded the formalities, and the course was great for the 38 players, except for the gusty winds!
One group must have played inspired golf, as they amassed 70 points, the next best being just 59 points. Congratulations to Wendy Burke, Anne Geddes and Cathy Maule for a great score. Both Pam Barker and Anne Geddes scored Birdie 2 shots on the 4th hole to claim the NTP prize (1 ball each), while $42 for the pro pin went to Barbara Clayton!

The AGM saw President Carole step down after three good years of leadership, as well as fellow committee members Carol Warner, Chris Hill and Leah Boyd. Carole thanked the others for their commitment and service and presented them with a small gift of appreciation. Barbara paid tribute to Carole for her efforts, as did Club Life Member Pam Tallents. A gift was then presented to Carole from the committee and members.
The President and Captain presented their Annual reports and the appointments (unopposed) were made of new President Pam Barker, Vice President Helen Chadwick and Secretary Carol Humphreys. Captain Barbara Clayton, Vice Captain Jane Clifford, Cathy Maule and Shirley Brereton remain in their positions for the coming year. Congratulations to all for undertaking these roles on behalf of the Women members.
Noela McMurray has been appointed Women’s Handicapper and Gloria Campbell the Bridge Convenor.
It was with sadness that Carole announced the recent passing of Ron Campbell, husband of Gloria, and of Wendy Ruttan, former club member and women’s Captain. Ron’s funeral is at 10am next Friday 20th October, followed by a celebration at the Club from 11am.
